What a bad time for the graphics card to burn out...lol...love your stuff..guess we will see if this old (and I mean really old) P4 can handle the older version of Daz I managed to find (thank god for the 400+ disks I saved stuff to). I look forward to the upcoming images that will be posted.

At least it is just the GC...my motherborad went pop on new years eve.

Now I am really depressed Walks of swearing and shouting looking for something to break. :)

Actually i would've thought No because they technically are not "Stonemason Products". They are now Daz3D products, just created by him.
But I was confused to see these same items listed in "his catalogue" of offered prizes.

Just to make sure everything is clear for everyone..Does must contain at least one Stonemason product also include the freebies that have so generously been given over the years (and of which I have all of them), including the dystopian blocks that have always been available for free here at Daz?

In two minds whether to enter or not! On the one hand the prizes are fantastic and a very generous offer, but on the other hand I'm not all that great at the art and I suspect my competition will beat me with a dirty stick!

On the issue of whether the DAZ owned items are allowed in the contest, I would say they probably are, since they are included in the prizes.
